Knicks won’t beat Celtics in big spot until they can limit their 3s

It bears repeating, in the context of Saturday night’s embarrassment, that success for the Knicks this season is dependent on whether they get to the conference finals.

Anything less is a failure.

It’s a high bar, but consolation prizes were exhausted after consecutive second-round eliminations and an offseason of heavy spending. Neither the opponent nor the injury report is an excuse.
